And being a redirector, redirec is what SquidGuard can do, either by sending a browser redirect to the browser, or by rewriting the URL while Squid forwards the URL. If you make SquidGuard rewrite the URL to a web page which results in an access denied then the access will be effectively denied. However, in the eye of Squid it is a proxied request resulting in an HTTP error.. If you want the request to be denied directly by Squid you need to use Squid acls in http_access. This will result in TCP_DENIED in your Squid access log, and no dependencies on other services.
